TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of householdproducts, in particular to a laminate and a cabinet.

BACKGROUND ART

Existing adjustable laminate cabinets typically include a laminatesupport, a laminate buckle, a movable laminate, and a cabinet body. Thelaminate can be adjusted by adjusting the positions of the laminatesupport and the laminate buckle. The laminate support, the laminatebuckle, and the movable laminate are mounted separately, resulting inhigh costs, great inconvenience in operation, and great possibility ofloss. The back insertion type adjustable laminate cabinets improvedbased on the existing adjustable laminate cabinets have, on the backsurface of the cabinet body, a plurality of protrusive slotscorrespondingly matched with insertion slots in the back surface of thelaminate. Both side edges of the front side of the protrusive slots areformed as clamping openings to assist in fixing the laminate; and inthis way, the costs of products are saved to a certain extent, and thesituation can be avoided that the laminate cannot work properly due tothe loss of the laminate supports or the clamping openings. However, thelength of a common laminate reaches the inner width of the whole cabinetbody. As a result, the height of a storage space cannot be flexiblyadjusted when articles are stored; or, for a cabinet body of which twosides are provided with sheet metal structures turning outwards, supportpoints at both ends of the laminate cannot achieve the effect of fixingthe laminate in opposite directions. Moreover, the existing productionprocess of the laminate is complex and cumbersome. Therefore, animprovement is urgently needed.
